| Reverse description | The reverse presents a multi-line Arabic inscription enclosed within a symmetrical laurel or olive wreath tied at the base with a decorative bow, conveying the mint attribution, the honorific invocation of victory for the Sultan, and the Hijri accession year 1255. A single six-pointed star surmounts the wreath at the apex. The legends are neatly arranged across several horizontal lines within the central field, consistent with standard Ottoman imperial coinage of the Tanzimat era. |
